Update:
I spent from 830am-6pm (minus ~2 hours) disconnecting, dropping, and moving the engine/trans assembly. As soon as I pulled the engine on the chain (subframe on ground), the car somehow managed to scoot forward and fall while on the only pair of jack stands. I know the top of engine was lower than the body colored bumper frame. But yeah jack stands toppled on their sides and got bent pretty good. I threw them into the parts car. I give up on the AWD system. I cant do it. I recommend looking at junkyards closer to you. Surely one of them will have an AWD system. I mean it is the east coast where its more populated. Just go hunting online for jys with p80s.

Yikes. I’m just glad you were not hurt. Sounds awful
